I've never had a BSOD when i was in front of the computer, When i run the verifier, it tends to happen less. I originally thought it was when it was turning off my monitor (turned this option off when i did verifier... the first time), and after 5 days of being on, it finally crashed with verifier running, VS 2-5 times a day when verifier is off.

WarningIf you're overclocking your system, revert back to stock clocks now.
NoteTest the system once the overclock is removed before continuing with the steps outlined below.
Part One: CPU Stress Test
Part Two: MemTest86+ RAM Diagnostic
Part Three: Hard Drive Diagnostics
Part Four: GPU Stress Test
ONE
CPU TEST
Run Prime95 and/or IntelBurnTest to stress test your CPU. Prime95 - Stress Test Your CPU - Windows 10 Forums & CPU - Stress Test Using IntelBurnTest
WarningYour CPU temperatures will rise quickly while under this stress test. Keep a keen eye on them and abort the test if overheating occurs.
TWO
RAM TEST
Note
MemTest86+ needs to be run for at least 8 passes for conclusive results. Set it running before you go to bed and leave it overnight. We're looking for zero errors here. Even a single error will indicate RAM failure.
THREE
HDD TEST
Run following tests
- Short Drive Self Test
- Short generic
- Long generic
If the short generic fails, no need for the long generic.
NoteDo not run SeaTools on an SSD as the results will be invalid.
Disk Check - Windows 7 Help Forums
- scan for errors, no quick scan but full scan
- check the health,
- benchmark.
It may take some time, but please take the time you need to perform it properly.
Let me know what the results are
- of the error scan,
- make a screenshot of the health of every hard drive and post the screenshots,
- post screenshots with the benchmark of the
- transfer rate,
- access time,
- burst rate,
- cpu usage.
FOUR
GPU TEST
NoteRun Furmark for around 30 minutes.
WarningYour GPU temperatures will rise quickly while Furmark is running. Keep a keen eye on them and abort the test if overheating occurs.
Just ran step one for about 90min before it crashed. Not 100% sure if that is what caused it to crash.
Ran step 4 hit 89° as a high
the memtest one will take me a minute because i misplaced my flash drive and lolfloppydisk

Before you do anything else, make sure that your cooling is proper, generally speaking the temperatures should never reach that high even under stress.
It is kinda in a small space now, i plan to cut a hole in the side of its placement and perhaps add a fan to that also, before i put it in its current location, it was in middle of room and only went to 80C after a while on kombusters burn in test.
also did step 2, 0 errors, takes forever for that test.
and step 3 complete.
